"Eyes brimming with dark flame, this man rejected everything other than himself in order to bring about one singular justice...' That's part of a novel I'm writing. I was inspired by the challenger who was just here, and somehow I got a little sad... Excuse me. You're a challenger, right? I'm the Elite Four's Ghost-type Pokémon user, Shauntal, and I shall be your opponent."

Shauntal (Japanese: シキミShikimi) is the first member of Unova's Elite Four who specializes in using Ghost-typePokémon. Shauntal has purple hair and glasses; her outfit is a purple "dress" with dark purple tights and pink shoes. She wears an additional black collar to her outfit and black gloves. Her books and pens are pink. In short, her appearance is varying shades of gloomy colors.

Personality

Rather bookish, Shauntal loves to write stories. She is fascinated with her Ghost Pokémon, often using them as the muse of inspiration to write, as well as the trainers that she battles.

Story

If the player chooses the "haunted library" room in the Pokémon league, they will find that Shauntal is adding onto her latest book, reading the work aloud. She then notices the player and apologizes for not noticing them; the passage she was working on is based on her last challenger - a young man with a powerful will to see through his ambitions. Concluding her explanation, Shauntal informs the player that they will begin their Pokémon League battle.
